CONTRIBUTORS After 27 years Snow Action moves on to bigger & better things as part of Adventure Entertainment. Same great content, even better distribution. As Australia’s oldest snow mag we stay relevant by always focusing most on what & where YOU, paying skiers & boarders, might want to check out next time. And the lowdown to have more fun and get the best value doing that. From the best sundeck salsa spot in South America to still-off-grid Japan tree skiing, it’s been a tough gig sussing it out all these years - note the hardship on our faces while on the case. But the more places you ski, the more there are to discover. Like from Poland to Patagonia in this issue. See you on the slopes — Owain & Carmen Price
GEAR UP 4 WINTER THE HEAT IS IN WITH LENZ HEAT SOX & GLOVES Lenz heat are world leaders in heat gear for the snow, with socks, mitts, gloves and even a boot warmer bag to make sure however chilly it gets, you won’t miss out on snow time. They are also beneficial for people with circulation problems to the extremities that are exacerbated in cold conditions. The latest models featuring the Lenz Toe Cap and Finger Cap provide an even warmer feeling. The Lenz app lets you set timers and have different settings for left & right for total control. Lenz 5.0 & 6.1 heat socks feature around the toe heating. Lenz 6.0 heat gloves & mittens feature around the fingers and thumbs heating. Once you have the system set up, they last for ages and replacement socks are available, so it’s a multi-season investment in getting more snow time that delivers a great return.
